ALCOHOLISM AND INEBRIEIYs

There lie n Well Ds fined Distinction Between

Report OF the British Medical Association.
The term alcoholism" has been some
what loosely employed. Some st random
applied it to all moderate and immoderste
drinking, or any kind of intoxication; 9TH
ers restricted it to the mental and moral,
exclusive of the physical, phases ofdrunk-
enness. This probably arose through
ignorance. Only OF recent years has the
existence OF the disease inebriety been
recognized. Alcohol was aD irritant mar
cotic poison, and the term alcoholism"
should be limited to the toxic phenomena
directly or indirectly arising from the al
cohol on the body and brain. This in

CANS were also included.
Inebriety, on the other nand, was dis
ease of higher nerve centers, allied to in
sanity, which might or might not be OF
alcoholic origin. This disease consisted
in morbid impulse to Or craze for in
toxication. The intoxicant consumed
might be any narcotic. 1t was the imme-
diate evanescent relief which was sought,
the inebriate often hating the inebriating
substances. Inebriety was, therefore,
true intoxication, manis, or, SIS DR.. Kerr

mania for narcotism. Inebriety, Or nar-

was nlconol, opium, choral, chloroiorm,

The disease might be constant Or periodic,

boy and girl, came to the city in wagon
from Erath county, this state, on their
way to Esstland county, Tex. They
stopped at wagon yard Wednesday
night. Yesterday morning the man har-
messed up his team taking his little six
year old boy in the wagon with him and
started out short distance in the coun-
Try for the purpose Of buying some oats,
Since that time the boy and man hsve net
been heard from, and fears
are entertained that they have
been fouliy deslt with and the
team made way with This suspicion is
strengthened by the fact that Huddleston
had about $500 on his person when he
left. His wife remains at the wagon
yard almost frantic with grief and is left
in almost destitute circumstances. Par
ties have been out hunting for the outfit,
but have just returned having found no

Disastrous Effects of the Freeze

BRONSON, FLA, April 3.-Reports from
different parts of the county claim the
vegetable crop will be almost a complete
failure this season. Some of our heaviest
truck farmers have thrown up the spon GO
for this year and will plant field crops,
which if not quite so profitable will be
more certain. Some OF our oldest farmers
claim the corn crop has been very much
improved by the recent cold, and the pros
poets now are that there will be large
crop harvested In this section.
Bronson's municipal election Yesterday
passed off quietly as usual, and resulted
In the election Of the following officers by
a large majority: Henry B. Coulter,
Mayor; W. A. Smith, Marshal; Charles
Z. jackson, Clerk; j. NJ. Stewart, IL. V.
Coorsey, j. Nj. BOoksdale, Aldermen;
Charles j. Huber, Treasurer. The ticket
is good one and is composed entirely of
enterprising, go-ahead young men. The
old-time element, which has been In office
ever since the first incorporation OF the
town, made strong effort to win the day
and appear very down-hearted over their
defeat.
